It was clear all she wanted was for things to be okay, and I just wanted to give Apple a big hug because she had so many things to deal with.

When Apple’s mum turns up, she thinks her life will be perfect, which it was, in a way. Her mum was an amazing super pretty actress who comes from America! What’s not to love? I love books entered around family and family issues. But this one, obviously, was the complete extreme. It had a flighty mother who cared about no one or nothing, two young girls who struggled to make their mother happy, and a grandmother who could do nothing but helplessly watch all the drama unfold. Name every bad thing for your fourteen/ten year old child and it’s in there—drinking, smoking, leering men, cutting school for weeks on end, even paranoia. And not to mention, Rain, who carries around her doll Jenny, thinking that she is a real baby. Like I said, this book has quite a lot of the sad. And while our world is absolutely filled with worse lives for children, I cannot say reading this book was easy. Lots of cringing and wincing and anger on my end. It is sad really because one of them has lived with the mum all their lives and one of them hasn’t, but the mum has ruined both of their lives anyway. At the end of the book both Apple and Rain end up living with Grandma, but see the mum every so often. They don’t end up hating mum because she was fun and lively but she clearly was too busy to look after them both. I read Sarah Crossan's Breathe two years ago, and remember feeling a bit mediocre about it. I went into Apple and Rain hoping to feel a bit less ambivalent about it than I did Breathe, but unfortunately I find myself finishing the book with similar feelings. Conjoined twins Daisy and Violet Hilton who became famous show performers in the 1930s. Unlike any of her other novels to date, Sarah Crossan spent a lot of time researching historical and contemporary conjoined twins for her novel One. Photograph: Alamy

Apple and Rain: : Sarah Crossan: Bloomsbury YA

Marit vowed never to use magic again – its force can be fatal. But when her best friend Eve is adopted by a legendary former dancer, Marit draws upon her powers to secure a job with the wealthy family so that she can watch over her. But Marit has another, secret motivation: her father died while working in the family's mines, and she has reason to believe he was murdered. I think Sarah Crossan’s way of writing Rain and of dealing with her mental illness is really very admirable. She’s done this well. The author does well at highlighting the sadness of the Great War, even going so far as to kill off one of the major characters and badly injure another. I think the author had to do this as it would be unrealistic for this family to escape with only one wounded member when many so many died. I really enjoyed this book and i would recommend it to people who like evocative language and stories.
